just loved dogs and cats, and wanted to save them all. So that’s what they kept doing – until at one point they were up to 10 dogs and a harem of cats!
So me, being the smart fella that I am, took advantage of this and chowed down on anything I could get my paws on. And with that many critters, there was always a lot of food around. Of course I didn’t limit myself to critter food – I also liked to help myself to people food! And I was just the right height to reach the food on the counter!
Meanwhile, my owners were having problems getting around, so I didn’t get much exercise either. Well, needless to say, by the time the nice lady from Brookline came to evaluate me, I was pretty tubby.
The other problem was that I had developed diabetes and, over time, ended up losing my sight. Oh my!
But remember I told you that I was a smart fella? Well that blindness doesn’t stop me – I find my way around just fine, thank you.
So I came into foster care, and my wonderful foster Mom put me on a strict diet to help me shed those extra pounds, and now look at how svelte I am! Hard to believe the before and after pictures, huh? Maybe they would like me to model for one of those weight loss ads!
Well, here I am – looking like a million dollars (at least that’s what people tell me because remember, I can’t see) – and no one seems to want to adopt me.
And my foster Mom says I’m one of the most charming gentlemen she has ever met! She says I have so much “personality” (whatever THAT means). Guess she likes it when I crawl up onto her lap when she sits on the sofa and turn right over for belly rubs! She calls me a “belly rub-aholic”.
If you’re worried about my diabetes, I just need a little ol’ shot twice a day. It doesn’t cost much and it doesn’t bother me at all!
Honest – I promise I will give you tons of licks and tail wags and loving if you would just consider making me part of your family. .I LOVE to be with my people, and obviously I get along well with dogs and cats, so what’s stoppin’ ya?
Please let the nice people at Brookline Lab Rescue know if you would like more information about me.
Sloppy kisses,
Blaze
